India feeds ~120M school kids daily across 1.2M schools & the scheme is fully funded by govt. We’ve been doing this since 1995 when our per capita income was <$400. Surely the richest country in the world can do the same. #MidDayMeal@POSHAN_Official
British-Pakistani Islamist preacher Anjem Choudary has been charged with running the proscribed UK terror group al-Muhajiroun, which is linked to numerous terror attacks and seeks to establish an Islamic caliphate in Britain run by Sharia law. https://t.co/y4Q3RnS13E
Ethnic violence in India's Manipur state is just one example of how U.S. sanctions against Myanmar have made a bad situation worse and triggered transboundary impacts. By inflicting misery on ordinary citizens, they are encouraging cross-border migration.

Patanjali talks about exactly this in his work (first published, around 2300 years ago) & practised as Yoga
But it's great that now it can go from being "alternative medicine" to "medicine", with of course patents & copyrights for the "primary" research to stanford etc
Which country is benefiting the most from US sanctions on Russia and Iran? The US. Just consider energy flows: US crude oil exports are at a record high. After surging 22% in 2022, they are set for a new record in 2023. The US, meanwhile, has become the world's top LNG exporter.
The decision to send cluster munitions to Ukraine shows how quickly foreign policy liberals abandon their principles when pressed. I don't mind their being inconsistent, but I wish they'd tone down the self-righteousness. Latest FP column: https://t.co/B1FACEAEvn
Despite blasphemy being legal in the UK “blasphemy is now being unofficially regulated on the UK’s streets” owing to radical preachers from Pakistan and Bangladesh coming to Britain and preaching here. The @HJS_Org report analyses what needs to be done. https://t.co/59bvHx0T5V
The horror continues in West Bengal. Two Tribal women were stripped naked, tortured and beaten mercilessly, while police remained a mute spectator in Pakua Hat area of Bamangola Police Station, Malda.
The horrific incident took place on the morning of 19th July. The women belonged to socially marginalised community and had a frenzied mob baying for her blood… It had all the making of a tragedy that should have ‘broken’ Mamata Banerjee’s heart and she, instead of merely outraging, could have acted, since she is also the Home Minister of Bengal…
But she chose to do nothing. Neither did she condemn the barbarity nor did she express pain and anguish because it would have exposed her own failing as a Chief Minister.
But a day after, she shed copious tears and screamed blue murder, because it was politically expedient…
This poor old lady selling #bhutta on a cart, last 3 decades at #CubbonPark (MS Bldg entrance), a tea cart, chaat vendor etc has had her cart seized & thrown into #BBMP truck on Sat. Stil Comes 2 park daily but has no food 2 eat. Pl return her #livelihood 🙏🏼@BBMPCOMM @BBMPAdmn
Some countries like Pakistan have anti-blasphemy laws - where blasphemy is punishable by death. However blasphemy laws were abolished in England and Wales in 2008 as the UK values freedom of speech. Now people within the UK who follow extreme ideologies are unofficially acting as if the UK does have blasphemy laws, which it does not. The report tries to address the issue. https://t.co/I8yRcDz6sp
Peddles lurid propaganda with WP, NYT giving her international platforms. Revels in the attention she gets in the West. Irony is Islamic world ignores her. That she enjoys freedom in her country to rail against authority calls into question her rants.
"As a reaction to Seema Haider’s case, a series of attacks on Hindus in Pakistan have begun,from targeting of temples to holding 30 Hindus hostage. What explains this senseless targeting of Hindus & the mindset behind it"?

I understand Rahul keeping quiet, because politics is selective. What I don’t understand is the press keeping quiet - especially the ones outraging over Manipur
This is Kavita Kaloi
In 2016, she dared to leave the CPM in Tripura
As punishment, CPM's liberal goons beat and raped her. She still cannot see from one eye.
In whole of English language media, I could find only *one* report on this and it came out in 2018.
Supreme Court rejected petition seeking probe into genocide & exodus of Kashmiri Pandits, twice, in 2017 & again in 2022.
Girija Tickoo's family is still awaiting justice.
Girija was gang-raped & her body was chopped in to two pieces with a saw machine while she was still alive
Rapes of Kashmiri Pandits: Oh that was a propaganda to defame KMs.
Rapes of Kuki Women: Oh shame on humanity, shame on BJP/RSS/Modi, their drivers, maids, random social media handles etc.
This is the hypocrisy of some people. Selective condemnation of rape. Rape of ANYONE, regardless of the religion or political ideology or gender, is ONE TOO MANY.
India should take this up officially, it's tragic to see what happens with the 2nd class minority citizens in Pakistan every single day of their miserable existence in the Land of Pure.

Hunting whales and dolphins is a grotesque barbaric sport that is illegal in most countries. The Japanese however continue with it. Is it any wonder then that their swimmers get attacked by dolphins when they go in the sea? Dolphins are not stupid. They are highly intelligent in fact.....Dolphins are not going to attack anyone. They know who their enemy is. https://t.co/Mxqt2tzetQ
